Shed it September

Hey all! I hope you are all safe and in good health.

It has been a tough year all around so I wanted to begin sharing some tools to lighten the load we are all carrying. Let's unpack!

Do you identify yourself by what you do for a living? Do you identify by how much money you make a year? How many measure success by these things? Does the success of your children truly state anything about you as a parent? We take on the decisions (good and bad) of ourselves, our children, our spouses… These are all isolated individuals who are capable of making decisions and therefore should hold the weight of their accountability. As parents, we can raise our children to a point and hope they take the values instilled. They will, without fail, become their own person. Be proud of that but do not define yourself by this. We mesh all these things together so often that we are unsure where one ends and another begins. Take the time to separate and shed all of these things until you can see your true self. Who were you before the job, career, thee spouse, the kids, etc. If you cannot remember, this post is especially for you. Take some time to shed this week. Let me know what wonderful things you find within you.
